"Andre Iguodala looked happy, relaxed and content, and yes, he was in Philadelphia. It seems like it would be hard for him to be happy in Philly.

He said the contrary.

"I definitely enjoy being here," Iguodala said at a local basketball camp on Saturday. "Evan [Turner] and I were speaking late last night. We had a really good conversation about how we can really play well together, how we can make each other better so we are looking forward to next year. We even talked about what we were going to do after practice next year. So I am definitely looking forward to improving myself and playing ball."

After Game 5 of the series against the Heat, Iguodala responded to the question: "Do you expect to be a Sixer next year?" with "I expect to be in the NBA," followed by a missed exit interview with his coach and front office brass and lots of trade talk on draft day. It seemed like Iguodala was on his way out.

But the seven-year Sixers' veteran has arrived at a place where he believes the important thing is to not let anything affect him in a negative way.

"Whatever happens will happen, that's why I made the statement I did right when the season was over," Iguodala said. "I am just happy to be playing basketball in the NBA. That's my childhood dream and then it kind of got taken out of context but who wouldn't want to be living that dream? I am living the dream so why worry about things I can't control.

"I am just happy to be in this position that when the season starts back up to be on a roster. Where do I want to be? It would be great to be back with the young guys along with Elton Brand and I think we have room to pick up a free agent, so it will be an exciting next year."

Trade rumors about Iguodala have become common place for the past couple years but he no longer believes that he is going to be moved."
